Saw this recently on a DVD. Having enjoyed Bustillo n Maurys previous
works (Inside, Livid n Among the living) n having seen all the seven
parts of TCM, i was looking forward to this. Well, i wasn't
disappointed. Surprisingly i got more than i bargained for. As a fan of
road horror/thriller movies, this movie turned out to b a perfect
combo. The film is suspenseful, tensed n at times brutal, the film will
keep u guessing who's Leatherface. The movie succeeded in paying homage
to: 1)There is a psychotic couple on the run who kills people
mercilessly a la Natural born killers. 2)There is a bonding between two
boys in which one fella takes care of the other deranged fella a la Of
Mice and men. 3)There is a cop who is hell bent on revenge from a
deranged family a la Devils rejects. 4)This is indeed a befitting
prequel a la Hannibal Rising, explaining the story of the young
Leatherface's evolution into a deranged killer. 5)It does have shades
of One flew over the cuckoos nest. 6)There is a scene which is similar
from the Revenant n another brutal scene from another film.... The
previous prequel showed him as a mentally n deformed face fellow who
just kills but this prequel showed a proper descent into madness n the
trauma at a young age which does make for a more entertaining origin
story. While the 1974 original will forever be a classic without
showing on screen violence, this film does have some very brutal
violence but not the kind of gore which is there in the remake n the
its prequel. Surprisingly good star cast n solid acting by Dorff n
Taylor.

I've not been a fan of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise, they've
had their moments but have never impressed me. This latest outing is no
exception and I feel the whole thing needs to be put on the shelf for a
while.

With a couple of familiar faces in Stephen Dorff & Lili Taylor we see
an alternative origin story for our antagonist as it tells the story of
young Mr Sawyer and his early run ins with the law.

It starts strong enough and exceeded my expectations (Which were low
going in) but it quickly spirals into mediocrity and covers the content
we've seen already for the past 40yrs! It's time for Leatherface to
hang up his chainsaw and go on an extended vacation. Somewhere nice, to
recuperate and come back reinvigorated in a decade or two.

The Good:

Starts strong

The Bad:

Predictable twist

Falls apart a tad near the end

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

It takes approximately 1 minute 20 seconds to get over a murdered child

The franchise is badly burnt out

Leatherface should have kept the cow mask!

Gloriously gory horror flick that may have the professional critics
squirming with indignation, but this picture had me squirming with
delight.

I don't care if its' a prequel or sequel or whatever this movie can
stand on its own as a nasty- but for its' genre -nice piece of film
making that screams out for a part 2.

A dysfunctional family take delight in torturing whoever crosses them
and when one of their number is admitted to an insane institution, then
the fun really begins.

Have to remember this is a black comedy and made for viewers to enjoy
and not to be taken seriously.

And what is even more laughable is the cops are portrayed as even worse
that the villains!

The star of the show is a matriarchal monster mother played by Lili
Taylor who dominates every scene she is in and convinces me to give
this film 7 and a half rounded up, hence: 8/10.

8/10.

Why are movies so raunchy now and so devoid of likable characters to
get invested in. Nurse White was the only decent human being in this
tub of horseshit. I miss movies the way they used to be made. Now
everyone's ugly, both inside and out.

I can't stand Stephen Dorff, because he seems as unlikable in real
life, as his movie characters are.
